Farmer’s Blessed Girl

The people from the Protectorate quickly found a piece of land for Zhou Man, just outside the city.

Knowing that Zhou Man is going to get smallpox, naturally no one dares to put things in the city. If something happens, it will kill people.

Therefore, the people from the Duhu Mansion chose a place far away, and the houses were all built. If she hadn't asked for water, they could find a place farther away.

However, although there is a small river there, it is not close to the river.

This is required by Manbao, so as not to pollute the water by being too close to the water.

According to Zhou Man's request, two courtyards were built, one for the patients and the other for the people who took care of the patients.

The cows were also prepared for her, not many, only three, and they were tied in the yard.

When these are done, General Guo and the others will also go on an expedition, and the selected prisoners will be sent to them on the day they go out.

There were six people in total, and all of them were injured.

Man Bao saw that one of them had broken an arm, but luckily it was an old injury, otherwise she would have to treat it first.

Man Bao took a pen and paper to record their names, household registration, etc., and asked casually, "What did you do?"

The six people were stunned and said, "We didn't do anything wrong."

Man Bao raised his head to look at them, his eyes narrowed, and he asked, "Aren't you the prisoners who were exiled to Xizhou?"

The faces of the six people changed, and they immediately said: "Sir, you are going to insult me, I am a conscripted military serviceman, not a prisoner."

Man Bao frowned slightly and couldn't help but look back at Bai Shan.

Bai Shan also pursed his lips, turned around and said, "I'll go ask."

The identity of the person who sent it can be known by asking the Protectorate.

They are really not prisoners, they are all Anxi soldiers who are serving in the military.

Bai Shan was also a little angry, holding their roster and asking, "Didn't you say you want prisoners?"

The officials of the Du Hufu were slightly embarrassed and explained: "They all agreed to it themselves. If you don't believe me, just ask them."

Bai Shan pursed his lips and asked, "What about the prisoner?"

"No," the officials of the Duhu Mansion probably felt that the tone was too strong, so he paused and said, "Young Master Bai, people with healthy limbs are going to go to the battlefield."

Bai Shan understood immediately, they didn't want to use intact prisoners for them, they had to use them on the battlefield.

He frowned and asked, "Then it wasn't hurt?"

"Is there anyone who is injured so that they can't go to the battlefield," the official said, "because they are all dead."

The medicine in the army is given to the soldiers first, and the rest will be given to the prisoners. Basically, those with bigger wounds will not survive, and those who can survive can continue to go to the battlefield.

Seeing that Bai Shan's face was not very good-looking, the other party said with a smile: "Don't worry, Young Master Bai, these people are willing to do it. Our major general promised them that they will get a sum of money for settlement and a reward afterward, no matter if they live or die. And let them take away the silk cloth given by Mr. Bai."

Bai Shan: "Dead..."

"The lieutenant will deliver things to their families."

Seeing Bai Shan's disbelief on his face, the other party's expression froze for a while and then said, "This is something that our major general ordered to do, and no one dares to fool him."

Naturally, General Guo would not fail to give his son this face.

Bai Shan's face turned a little brighter.

Then the official said with a smile: "Bai Gongzi and Zhou Da are kind-hearted and reluctant to use these soldiers, but this is a good thing for them. You can also see that they are disabled, and Anxi is far away from the Central Plains. Far away, not to mention that it is difficult for them to travel through the desert and return to the Central Plains, but if they can go back, they have a few tattered clothes and a broken knife. What will they do for a living after they go back? It’s not that they are a drag on the family.”

Bai Shan's expression was condensed, "All the disabled veterans return home with settlement expenses."

"Oh, the imperial court has stipulated that, then you have to be rich in the army," he said, "Do you think our Anxi army is rich?"

He immediately added: "You can't look at our generals, you look at the people below."

Bai Shancai opened his mouth and closed it again.

"The major general is in charge, and all those who apply for the draft can get the settling fee to return to their hometown. That's fine. He also took out 100 taels of silver as a reward. At that time, it will be divided equally regardless of life or death, plus the silk cloth you gave. After returning home to save some flowers, I can always die with the help of my brother, and if the injury is less severe, maybe I can get a daughter-in-law."

The official said: "They are all vying to be the medicine man for Lord Zhou. Unfortunately, Lord Zhou only had six at the beginning, so only the six with the best health were selected to send. Now there are more than twenty people waiting in the army. , all want to wait for the second round."

Bai Shan was so angry that his heart hurt, but he didn't know who was angry. Although he didn't know much about the army, he also knew that not only the Anxi Army, but also many armies could not properly place the veterans and remnants, because the cost of money Too much money, grain and rice.

After all, it is still too poor.

Bai Shan turned around and left, went back to tell Man Bao the truth, and said, "Just use them. It should be General Guo Xiao who said hello, otherwise the people who brought it will only be worse."

Man Bao could only nod, "Then let them take care of their bodies first."

Bai Shan nodded.

Man Bao went back to find some medicinal herbs that tonified qi and nourished blood, and asked people to buy chickens to keep in the yard. From time to time, they would stew mutton, kill chickens, and eat three meals a day, two of them with meat.

The soldiers ate in a daze. After two days in a trance, they suddenly burst into tears. Man Bao, who was inoculating the cow with pox in the yard, shook his hands and almost poked the pox scab into the cow's eye.

She firmly pressed the cotton ball into the cow's sinuses, made sure it touched the wound she had lightly opened, and then pressed it in.

The cow moved uneasily.

Man Bao confirmed that Mian Tuan couldn't fall out for a while before pushing it aside and letting Zhou Liru stare at the cow from a distance before washing his hands and changing his clothes before going to see them.

The six of them were sitting at the table hugging their heads and crying. Bai Shan and the others who were eating with them sat there dumbfounded with their bowls in their hands. When they saw her come in, Bai Shan immediately said, "We didn't do anything."

Bai Erlang nodded immediately, "Yes, we didn't bully them."

Yin or was also confused. He was here on the first day, or he just wanted to see the excitement. Who knew they could cry when they had lunch together?

Yin Or put down the bowls and chopsticks and hesitated: "Is it because we stole their food?"

Bai Shan took out the handkerchief and handed it to the six people, "No way, although we ate together, we killed two chickens today."

The six wiped away their tears and choked up: "I, we just think this is a meal with decapitation, and we like to eat it, but don't want to eat it, but thinking about it, we can eat meal for so many days, and our hearts are satisfied. ."

Man Bao: "...Who said it was a meal with a broken head, this is for you to condition your body, in order to prevent you from breaking your head."

She said loudly: "This is the first meal!"

too difficult
